AI and Airbases

Post by chrisp »

Been playing 2.3 as the USN.

How come the Japanese AI doesn't seem to send air units to outlying airbases? They have airbases in Gili Gili, Lae, Lunga, etc., but they don't send fighters to those bases. In fact, they rarely send *any* aircraft to a base. I have seen air units move to Lunga after it reached level 5, and some units deployed to Buna, but no fighters in Buna and nothing in Gili Gili. In the meantime, I'm getting 100+ Zero escort from Rabaul.

As the USN, I pump fighters into a base as soon as it reaches level 1, but the Japanese AI doesn't. So I can bomb their bases with relative impunity.

What gives?

A dumb AI. Start playing pbem and you'll find a surprise waiting for you.
